It defies gravity and is one of the finest and most delicate castings of bronze sculpture ever seen. B. Sanctuary, 2006 shown on opposite page $35, x 16 x 76 edition 6 This piece is a recent breakthrough for Bart; his first truly urban subject. This is not his first use of found objects.

Apple Picker II / Meditation, 2003 $4,000 7 x 10 x 9 edition 8 This piece is a rare example of a work that Bart decided to rethink ; the earlier version depicting a much younger man. This rendering brings to mind a French 19th century pastoral painted by an impressionist. D. Husky, 2000 $20, x 23 x 33 edition 5 Bart s Husky represents the quintessential working dog, with all of its nobility and vigor.
